The ai is going to pillage citadels instead of murder its entire army on one? say it aint so. But looks good, too bad about the armies of archeologists, when I am warmongering invading some ai and taking all of their archeologists was my go to plan


About time too, I could put one or two GG on a choke and not need to make any army for the rest of the game.

Because this happened to me (64-bit Windows 7, DX10/11): If the game takes longer than usual to load at the start loading screen after the recent patch, verify the game content. That solved the problem for me

Just finished watching MadDjinn playthrough as Poland. What should I watch next?

Yes! Finally won a culture victory as Morocco. Their starting bias really makes them a favorite civ of mine. You almost always get a religion, there is always a mountain with at least 1 space from your capital, there are plenty of desert hills that you put a casbah on and with petra get a +2 food + 4 hammes + 1 gold. And if you feel like a warmonger their UU is on the way to arty and whenver you capture a city -- assuming you havent totally whipped out the ai's army around it -- your uu gets that defensive bonus for 'your' territory. and while the camel archer/kashik line is cleary superior since you can get a bunch of + 3 range, 5 movement, 2 attack units they are an upgrade dead end whereas the berber cav keeps all its upgrades when it turns into tanks.

Lesson learn the hard way. If you have the Zulus as your neighbor and they start spamming cities towards you, build a defensive army before it's to late. Especially as Venice

I honestly don't know if he's good or not as I haven't gotten to play a lot, but this is one I found on youtube (it's also Poland though....)

Elcee is good

Maddjinn is good also but after mid game since he plays with movement on his turn are crazy slow which is something that sadly bores me too much to finish his videos.

Playing Alexander is so hilarious. You accidentally get like 300 influence with every city state just by doing nothing. Like, I'm just killing some barb camp and 4 city states apparently wanted it dead so I get like 50 influence with them pushing it over the Ally limit so they share their luxuries so I get more influence with every other city state since they wanted those two. With patronage and offering to protect them I default to 35 base with everyone, so every quest is like a free ally. I don't even want all these allies.

Elcee, Yourus, Maddjin, PrimEval and Moriarty are diety youtube players.
The one thing that kind of infuriates me watching maddjin lps is how the ai never attacks. in his last one he is neighbors with the freaking zulu and he plays with 3 elephants for the first 200 turns and no other troops.

Yeah, I'm playing on Prince and so far, my neighbors always seems to start attacking me for no reason whatsoever.

Just wondering this. When playing as Venice, does the AI count buying an city-state as an attack?

I can't say with certainty, but if my games playing as Venice are any indication, they do not.

In one game (Venice, prince) , I had Zulus and China as neighbors. Zulu are Zulu, and we didn't have the best of relationships anyway, but he attacked me after I bought a second city-state. China didn't react to it however.

In another game, USA was my only neighbor and he suddenly got mad just after I bought my second state (that he also bullied IIRC).

If I'm reading you correctly, both of those nations bordered or were very close to the CS in question, meaning it was likely their proximity that triggered war as opposed to the buying of the city state itself.

I definitely had the AI complain about settling too close when i bought a city state, so it's best to pick city states not directly adjacent to someone who is already hostile.

I am not so sure. In my games if the Zulu are kind of close they will build cities towards you and then impi attack with an almost certainty.

finally won an emperor game yesterday...
it was an all-around victory...
would have won by diplo but i abstain.... continued on...
should have won again by SR but didn't launch the last part...
still would have won by culture but didn't launched concert on that remaining civ to win (10k worth of tourism)
again... would have won by domi...
only to be cut short of time victory...

used poland... i kinda like it... the color is cool... the free policy is just too good. love it. will try immortal now...

prince 1 win, 0 loss (japan)
king 1 win, 0 loss (celts)
emperor 1 win, 1 loss 1 rage quit (poland, celts, japan)

it IS REALLY hard to win cultural victory...
you guys are right... diplo is kinda easy... wont disable it, instead when the voting comes, ill just abstain...
domi and cultural is the kind of victory for me now...
but still a warmonger is always a warmonger!!! hahaha!

He also gets nearly every other civ in the game to declare war on the Zulu to keep them away from him.
